Photos of Penelope Cruz and Pedro Almodovar in Spanish Vanity Fair

Penelope and Pedro Put Their Friendship on Display

Penelope Cruz posed for another Spanish magazine, and this time Pedro Almodovar joined her for the April cover of Vanity Fair. The pair has been in nonstop promotional mode for Broken Embraces, and their close relationship shines through in the interview. Penelope never misses a moment to talk about her love and admiration for Almodovar, including in her Oscar acceptance speech last month. The two friends have made multiple movies together, and their real-life bond is just as strong as their working partnership.

Those who have not seen Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down, Women on the Verge...., All About My Mother, and most recently Volver truly cannot appreciate the brilliance of this director/screenwriter and Spanish cinema. Bravo, Pedro! And your muse, Penelope, too.

I need to read an English version of the article. I love Penelope! She is so beautiful and talented. I wonder if she's still seeing Javier Bardem. Ilaniac13, not sure if you were implying that they're romantically involved. Almodovar is openly gay.

I'm so glad she stopped smoking. Keep that skin (not to mention your health) young while you can, Pene!
Also, his admission that he was close to becoming a father at age 40 strikes me as creepy for some reason... it sounds like he was super relieved.
